How to Deal With App Bugs?

Improper and buggy apps can never be successful in the market, and that is why mobile app testing is highly recommended and should be done before launching it in the app distribution stores. The testing process is conducted to check functionality, usability and consistency of an app.

In mobile application development, three main scenarios are considered and it is essential to take care in each step to develop bug free app. Those are:

· Documentation

· Design

· Application

Documentation:

Creation of a functional specification document is one of the main activities when starting a project development because a designer creates a UX/UI design of the project according to the documentation, a developer writes the lines of code according to the documentation, a QA engineer should confirm that the project is delivered up to the expectations according to documentation, All these entire process are control by the owner with the help of this same document.

Thus, in order to avoid bugs in the documentation one should always keep the documentation up to date during the app development process. Maintain and support the functional and technical specification and up to date with a new, awesome feature that helps to build a great app.

Design:

While designing a bug free app, follow these two simple rules:

· Stick to the UX/UI guidelines of the target platform and best practises of design

· Conduct a periodic review with a developer and a QA engineer

These simple tips will help to set and reach high expectations for quality and bug free app.

Application:

Developing a bug free application becomes more complicated, to keep it as simple some testing processes are mentioned here:

Unit testing: Individual modules or functions of the project are tested in this type of unit testing. The best unit testing process clears the bugs and comes up with a cleansed code in least time.

Integration testing: In this individual modules are combined in groups and tested as blocks. Testers are tracking the dependencies between the modules and confirm whether or not they interact correctly.

System testing: It tests the working of module functions separately and also together as a complete system. It checks the entire system performs well its requirements.

Acceptance testing: This is the final stage testing, in this product owner or QA engineer tests the system functions as per requirements, and whether or not all of the features have been included accordingly.

As a matter of fact, 100% bug-free apps don’t exist. All the precautions and patch up measures, we can take is to try minimizing the bugs to a bare minimum. Finally, no one can promise to give a bug-free app as it is all about the integrity of code, which can never be completely be foreseen.

After releasing an app, constantly keep it updated and check the performance with user feedback as well as internal R&D to make it better. When you spend the time during the development process, and clearing a lot of bugs, it pays off in managing any work that comes after releasing the app.
